GAME THREAD - Pitt vs FSU .......

[UPitt '89]

Luther has been an unsung hero today. rebounding and defending.


But now Jamel and Mike both missing FTs. Ugh. 0-for-3 from the two of them with a chance for the lead.

 

[The Sisco Kid]

continues for young

 

[Pittx9]

This is just flat out pathetic. They should be embarrassed.

 

[UPitt '89]

It's a good thing FTs don't matter. (I kid)

 

[FreeportPanther]

Young misses 2 FT's, then misses another layup. Playing like he's paid off!

 

[passedout]

YES! Beasley, have a seat!

 

[pittbb80]

Your prime time players cant miss huge free throws and you cant give up second chance shots in crunch time............Ugh

 

[eastcoasthoops]

What did he do the last few games eh? Selective memory eh?

Thank heavens he came up big against NC State eh?

You are a repetitive one trick pony. Welcome to ignore.

 

[JD1976]

3 straight FT misses. Remember those.

 

[Piranha]

Prime-Time players need to take over at crunch time.

 

[Chairman Moe]

C'mon guys - FSU is serving this game up to you on a platter

 

[Pittx9]

How does the conference's leading free throw shooting team embarrass themselves in crunch time from the charity stripe? That is a big, big problem.

 

[UPitt '89]

Jamel's line today:

6-for-17
0-for-1 at the line
4 turnovers

Ugh.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

3 straight FT misses. Remember those.

Or, remember the wide open three that Artis missed that would have kept us from shooting the last two and would have made us happy that we missed the first one.

 

[Protes]

Can't believe Mne and Janel miss 3 straight FT's. Smh

 

[PittPoker]

Young misses 2 FT's, then misses another layup. Playing like he's paid off!

Um, sure. Okay. The Vegas Bookies contacted him before the game didn't you know?

Happy feet, let's go offense!

 

[Pav9870]

Good defense, now repeat the rest of the game.

 

[DT_PITT]

HUGE offensive rebound by MIKE!!

 

[PittPoker]

You are a repetitive one trick pony. Welcome to ignore.

Oh no, I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight after that.

 

[UPitt '89]

We're going to be spending much of the final 2 minutes at the line.

FTs have more importance than any other factor at this point.

 

[passedout]

Young has been coming up BIG... kid is working on the glass!! Hes gassed..

 

[Pittx9]

Mike is really stepping up with his rebounding. He is just dreadful from the line though.

 

[DT_PITT]

Geezz Mike.

 

[Pav9870]

Michael Young where have you gone?

 

[The Sisco Kid]

wow holy hell

 

[UPitt '89]

If we lose.... FTs in the final 3 minutes have just become the biggest reason.... despite what JTPF and Kiwi say about it.

 

[FreeportPanther]

Young two more misses from the FT line! Giving it away.

 

[UPitt '89]

Missing two FTs is the functional equivalent of a turnover.

 

[eastcoasthoops]

Luther!

 

[UPitt '89]

Ryan Luther is one of the MVPs of this game.

Big game by him.

 

[The Sisco Kid]

go to ryan Luther-- lmao

 

[Pav9870]

Luther with desire.

 

[passedout]

DAMN! Where has the Ryan Luther I just saw been ALL year? LOVE the effort!!!

 

[UPitt129]

Luther is killing it for us on the boards. Clutch shot by Artis!

 

[Piranha]

Props to Luther - brought the toughness we needed.

 

[DT_PITT]

RYAN has been the x-factor.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Luther with a "man rebound"!

 

[Pav9870]

now do you foul before the shot?

 

[Pittx9]

How do you not play Ryan Luther more going forward? I'll take that miss if you can follow it like that and then make a great pass.
